Museum of the Plains of Perryton is an encyclopedic history museum dedicated to preserving, conserving, and educating. The community of Perryton was formed in 1919 with the merging of two smaller pioneer villages that had been by passed by the railroad. This unique history provides numerous opportunities for the Museum to delve into two vibrant historical stories. The Museum has four late 18th Century and early 20th Century original structures on site, three of which came from those two pioneer villages. Our long term plan includes a docent training program enabling the museum to conduct period tours in period costumes focusing on our "Victorian Mainstreet." Museum of the Plains is also concentrating on expanding our elementary school educational outreach program.
